MDMP 46C Combined UC/UPG, vocabulary assignment required pre-upgrade?

I have a question about SPUM4 when doing an Combined UC&UPG on a 46c system.
As per the manual you have to run all the scans to complete SPUM4 in Prepare before starting the upgrade.
But do you have to perform the language assignment of the vocabulary list before the upgrade?
Is it possible to do this using SPUMG after the upgrade?
Basically I am being pushed for time and the project team is not ready to do the language assignments during Prepare. So it would be easier for me if I could do the scans and collate all the information required then perform the upgrade. Once the upgrade is complete, then allow the upgrade team to assign the languages post upgrade using the SPUMG transaction.
I am right in thinking that the vocabulary list has to be completely processed before conversion, this is because the words will use the global fallback which may not be right?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
you have to do the vocabulary assignment in the SPUM4 environment (on 4.6c), if you decide to use CU&UC. In CU&UC it does not make sense to do the assignment after the upgrade.
In case you go for TU&UC, you have to do the upgrade first and then do the vocabulary assignment.
Regarding vocabulary maintenance:
It would be possible to even leave ALL language fields empty in the vocab and go on with the scans. However this will probably produce millions of entries in the reprocess logs (after the reprocess scan), which cannot be handled. The same will be valid for transaction SUMG, which needs to be executed after the conversion (see UCG). This will result in a completely meaningless test for the SPUM4/SUMG.
If your scope for this test is 100% concentrated on export / import downtime, then this might make sense. However if you are looking for a complete CU&UC test, this does not make sense.
On the other hand side, there are only a few customers who really manage to maintain the vocab 100% - so a small percentage of unassigned words is usually left over. But the goal should be, to get this as low as possible !
Normally in the first trial, the number of the unassigned words in the vocab can be relatively high. But the result of the reprocess scan can be used to assign additional words in the vocab (and rerun the reprocess scan after additional maintenance).
Of course this will take time ! But if you want to avoid problems with many reprocess logs and repair logs, I would recommend to spend some time on maintenance of the vocab.
What happens, if a word is not assigned in the vocab ?
1) It will produce at least one (probably multiple) reprocess logs
2) R3load will use the fallback code page for the conversion of one or multple entries and it will write a message in the according xml-file
3) In SUMG, the according entries (again one or multiple) will show up in the manual repair

    Hi Chris,
    I don't recommend to continue with the upgrade unless your data has a minimum amount of characters which are outside of the fallback code page. As a final step of the preconversion and during the export of the database, SAP will write reprocess logs for each record which has no valid language/codepage assignment. You can maintain the reprocess logs after the upgrade in transaction SUMG to convert the data. There is no option to maintain the vocabulary after the upgrade in the unicode system. The vocabulary is only used during the export of the database to convert the data. After the upgrade, you can only convert the table records one by one. This can be a lot of work and should be completed during the downtime for end-users.
    I'm the project leader for a similar project (4.6c MDMP > ECC6.0 Unicode). We plan to go live in ~8 weeks. We use codepages 1100, 8300 and 8400.

    I've done the CU&UC the last year, and if i remember ok the SPUM4 is before the upgrade,......and after the upgrade there is the SPUMG,........
    You can search more info in other posts of the 2008 year with my problems in CU&UC.

  • MDMP Unicode Conversion: maintenance system vocabulary in.Excel possible?

    We are currently converting from R/3 4.7 MDMP to ECC 6.0 EHP5 Unicode using CU&UC. We have native speakers to do the manual maintenance of the system vocabulary (assignment of words without language key to a language). However these native speakers are SAP "illiterates" and have no access to SAP. We would like to extract the system vocabulary to Excel, give it to the native speakers, they maíntain in Excel, and then we upload the Excel into SAP. Extracting the vocabulary is easy, since there is an ALV grid. Is there a way to upload the Excel to SAP? Thank you very much.

    Hi,
    the down- and upload scenario via spreadsheet is not forseen in SPUMG.
    I know customers who maintain the vocabulary with automatic and semi-automatic procedures and then verify the assigned languages via spreadsheet download sent to native speakers. In this scenario, there should be only a few words, which are assigned wrongly and these can be corrected manually.
    However even in this scenario customers have to take care that the code page used by e.g. excel fits to the assigned language. E.g. you need to do this on a local Windows (default code page local).
    But maintaining the language in the spreadsheet and then uploading the result to spumg is not possible.

  • WLAN DHCP Addr. Assignment Required via CLI

    Hello all,
    Is anyone aware of the CLI command to enable / disable the DHCP Addr. Assignment required WLAN option on a 5508 controller running 7.2.110.0 code? I don't seem to be able to find it documented anywhere, and if it is available via CLI it's not intuitive.
    Thanks for any insight anyone can shed,
    Andrew.

    That has to be performed from the GUI. I had ran into that a while back and I usually Dona lot of my configuration from the CLI, but couldn't find how to set that and put an address.... Well there wasn't one for the CLI.

  • Batch Assignment required

    Dear All,
    My senerio is this : -
    (1) I am creating delivery with batch split ...
    (2) Sometimes inspection lot created with batch assignment & I am able to record the result & UD but some times system made inspection lot with full delivery qty and when I am tried to record the result system given an error for "batch assignment required" . I am not able to understand why some system do other procedure & some time do other...
    Can anyone help me out...

    Is this an outgoing delivery, inspection type 10?  If so, the inspection lot is created when the delivery is created.  So the lot will be sitting out there with the status BREQ, batch required.  You must be using a batch managed material.
    Untill a delivery is fully picked, the batch number is not assigned to the inspection lot.  I believe this is the difference you are seeing.  In some cases, SD might  assign the batches either directly in the sales order, (which transfers to the delivery), or they assign them in delivery before the lab does the testing.  You might also have automatic batch selection which might pick the batches in some cases, but in other cases no batches are found and it requires a manual intervention to select batches.
    In other cases, if shipping hasn't yet completed the SAP transactions to assign the batches to the delivery before the lab completes testing, you'll get the error you are seeing.  In some busineses they test the batches before making the assignment so they don't have to unpick the delivery if a particular batch fails testing.  Doing that, means the lab has to wait to record the results until later, after SD finishes picking the delivery.

  • Requirement to upgrade OBIEE 10g on Windows to OBIEE 11g on Linux

    Dear All,
    I have a requirement to upgrade OBIEE 10g from current windows 2003 environment to OBIEE 11g Linux environment.
    I went through forums and many threads on upgrade, everywhere they talk about Upgrade Assistant (UA). And oracle documentation says ,
    +"Do not change from one platform or architecture to a different platform or architecture as part of the upgrade process.+
    +For example, if the existing 10g system is running on a Windows 32-bit platform, do not install Oracle BI 11g on a Linux 64-bit platform and then run the Linux 64-bit Upgrade Assistant to upgrade the existing 10g system."+
    But there would certainly be scenarios with other users the way I have. Then what is the way out to do this upgrade?
    Can anyone give some advice on this. It is little urgent.
    Thanking in advance.
    Regards,
    Deepika.

    Thats are huge change in platform. win32 to linux 64.
    Yet what we upgrade is only
    catalog and rpd.
    this might involve some manual change if UA cannot complete successfully.
    Its better to do a prototype before the actual upgrade as recommended by Oracle. This will show what can the possible issues and road blocks.

  • Required Post Upgrade Jobs: Missing jobs and failures

    Folks,
    In reviewing "Required Post Upgrade Jobs", I found that "Compile Non-Compiled Flexfields" failed. The job was submitted by APPSMGR and immediately started since the Request Process queues were not initially deactivated as reccomended in doc 399362.1. I'm afraid I don't know the password for APPSMGR. Is there a way for me to restart this job so that any successors release?
    Only a handful of the required jobs show to have been submitted and run. Would required jobs that have not run and do not appear in the queue need to be manually submitted?
    Thanks for any help.

    Huh?

    So, you have restored 9.4.3 from Time Machine but can see all your pictures in 9.5?
    Do you have two version of iPhoto on your Machine?
    And if you didn't update the Library, ("as it did not work out,") how can you see things in 9.5?
    So, whatever set up you have is confusing.
